Radio War
During the Second World War German intelligence had deployed wireless teams throughout occupied Europe. Monitoring and reporting of their wireless transmissions fell to a small, secretive and largely unknown unit manned almost exclusively by volunteers. Agents had even been deployed to mainland Britain to spy on British military activity.
This unit was to become known as the Radio Security Service (RSS) and was at the core of the signals intelligence production effort at Bletchley and the insights into German military tactical and strategic planning. The Voluntary Interceptors (VI) as they became known would spend hours every day at home monitoring the short wavelengths for often faint and difficult to copy signals transmitted by these German secret intelligence services. Without interceptors like the RSS, Bletchley would not have existed.
